So many things have gone on since we last wrote on this thing!

We had a great time Bloomington, IN. Thank you so much to Erica for having us, the laundry room was great, the bagels were great, the naps were great, we will be back soon for sure! Also we can't forget our new friends we made in Stereo Deluxe, and of course Cassie who was nice enough to drive all the way from Chicago to give Joe and I free haircuts!

A few nights ago in Nashville we also had a chance to see a good friend in Jeff Miller. He always plays amazing and has become one of our closest friends we have ever made through this band. We walked around downtown Nashville which was great, saw plenty of Elvis and Johnny Cash, and ate these weird sandwiches that had cole slaw all over them. 

After that we immediately headed to Orlando where we have our home base set up for the next few nights we're in Florida. We ran around Disney on Monday with our friend Danny, went on every good ride in 4 different parks, which took all night. It was tiring but very well worth it. 

Last night we played in Jacksonville at Jack Rabbits, which was a good time. We made some new friends in The Kung Fu Girlz and the Arteffects. Also, thanks to Amanda and Caitlin for coming out and hanging with us! I have some pictures of the past few days posted below, everything has been great so far.

We have 5 shows left on this tour, starting with Ocala tonight, woohoooo

We've been craaaaazy busy lately and haven't had time to do any blog posts! Right now were driving through a state emergency in Iowa trying to find a way back into Illinois so I have some time to give some updates on the band. The tour so far has been awesome aside from the crazy storms we've run into here in Iowa and some annoying van problems. We made some new friends playing in Chicago, two bands called Tokyo and The House Floor, we will be playing with them this July in New Jersey which should be a great show. Also another exciting announcement for the band is that we will be working with Chuck Daley and Beartrap PR, we are all so ecstatic to have a person on board like Chuck to help us. You can check out Beartrap and the other amazing bands they work with at www.beartrappr.com

Anyway, this flooding is insane, water levels are rising so high that they are flooding huge bridges. We took a few pictures while we were stopped, which I will post as soon as I can get to a computer and off this stupid phone. Rockford tomorrow, come visit us
